Visitors to tahCha can quell their tongues' tea-house cravings with more than 50 types of loose tea and platters full of fruit and homemade pastries. Spend a tea-filled afternoon with up to five friends or the tea-loving stranger handcuffed to your wrist, asking a nearby teatender for a bottomless cup of hot or iced tea or a signature tahCha lemonade. Tea-drinkers can reach with lightning speed to snap up sandwiches from a platter before friends descend upon them, or spear apples and oranges with a knife and lift them menacingly from the fruit tray. A pastry platter overflows with croissants, muffins, and scones, and a dessert platter drips decadent appeal from each chocolate-dipped fruit; each tray doubles or triples in size to suit the number of guests feasting on it. TahCha's quaint atmosphere is suffused with free WiFi and empty of smug 18th-century monarchs, allowing patrons to unwind without fear of tariffs.
